Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of TRENDnet Cable Tester 10/100 COAX and TP ( TC-NT2 )
Customer Review: It's cheap, and it works great!
Summary: 4 Stars
This particular unit is a must have any IT personnel. It works great, and includes a nice case for storage. I can't justify spending more money for this type of tester, as there really isn't much to these units.

Customer Review: Worked great, but I fried it
Summary: 5 Stars
The company I work for is getting new VOIP phones in the near future, and as part of this project I needed to tone our ethernet lines. I read a few reviews, and ended up buying this tester along with the Trendnet TC-TP1 Probe. It worked beautifully for about twenty minutes, but then died on me. Even though there is only two-and-a-half volts passing down cat5 cable, apparently that is enough to fry it. I have only myself to blame though, as it states all over the tester that it is "not for live circuits". I had assumed that this message was merely a safety warning, and not something I needed really to concern myself with. Newbie mistake.
I will be buying another one, and this one I will test only on dead lines. And I predict it will work great for me. So a word of warning to other newbs, really do only use it on dead lines!
Customer Review: Anticipated implementation problem and was not let down
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are walking into a cabling cluster-mess you will need this. Found cabling issues that others worked around. Customer thought I was a trouble-shooting genius. I did not tell them that its all in the tools and knowing how and when to use them. Be prepared and git yourself one.Customer Review: Nice tool
Summary: 5 Stars

Summary: 5 Stars
Hook up to your ethernet cable and give it a "twist test" to ensure your connection is good. This tool has helped me find bad connectors when they look good under close inspection.
